I really have a hard time understanding how all this is independent voters fault. There is so much rhetoric about how third party voters are to blame because things are “so much worse with Trump”. Ignoring the fact that even adding all the third party votes to Kamala wouldn’t have changed the outcome. 99% of the atrocities in Gaza happened under the Biden/Harris administration. I’m not saying Trump orchestrated the cease fire or wouldn’t have ramped up the attacks. But there is no precedent to act like Kamala would have advocated for the Palestinians in this situation. In fact, she explicitly sided with Israel. She isn’t some savior y’all. She was on the wrong side on this one. Quit pointing fingers.

Both Trump and Harris were pro Israel. Why are third party voters getting gaslighted for Trump’s actions. I didn’t vote for him. And Harris would have been more of the same. Worse/better doesn’t matter. Both backed Israel and sending weapons.

Here I am playing the same game every day and your here playing vastly different games on a daily basis! Thanks for the content. I enjoy your posts.

Wouldn’t art created from personal use be taking away commissions from artists? I don’t see how it’s functionally any different. Only the scale is changed. If I wanted a very specific picture I could either generate it myself or get it commissioned. What makes that any difference for Hollywood? Either your paying for the software and someone to generate the content or your paying for the artists? What about CGI vs practical effects? It’s all the same argument.

Thanks for posting this! It’s a nice reminder to support some of the organizations who’s products I enjoy.

Currently I only donate to give directly

There literally is a third option that will be printed on most of not all ballots. Rank choice voting is huge but people should be willing to vote earnestly. Nobody wants to be the one to make the change and wants the world to change first but that’s not how it works.

Check out libertarian nomination Chase Oliver. He is very strong on anti-war. Don’t vote for evil to avoid evil. Vote for someone who represents your views.

There is no need for personal attacks. If you are implying I subscribe to conspiracy theories then you are not correct.

Sure, about the candidates and their stances. All the candidates manipulate the polls to make it look like their ahead and they are just used to pressure people to vote for one of the major parties. Vote for who you want in office. And if you are inclined then try to sway others. But this bandwagon appeal isn’t the way.

Whatever happens will happen. We don’t have control over the outcome only our efforts. Do what you can now to fight for what you believe. Stressing over polls doesn’t help.

Chase Oliver is the libertarian nomination and one of his common quotes is that he is “anti-war to the core”. Anybody with sympathy towards Gaza should absolutely be considering voting for Chase in November.

Chase is anti-war on all fronts.

For a bit of context. Inviting Trump was decided on by the party leaders and was not a popular choice with most of the delegates who were worried it would send a confusing signals to people not familiar with the party. Trump was also able to sneak a lot of his MAGA supporters into the convention for the speech. They tried to sit up front to make it look like Trump was popular there but they were forced to sit in the back. So any claims about cheering should be take with some salt.
